3.3.3. Dielectric Measurements
The dielectric constant () and dielectric loss tangent (tan) were computed using the values of capacitance (C) measured with the help of LCR–Q meter in the frequency range of 20Hz to 2MHz. Figure 6 depicts the variation of dielectric constant with logarithm of frequency. It is observed from the figure that the dielectric constant decrease with increase in frequency. At lower frequency the dielectric constant shows maximum value whereas at high frequency it shows minimum value. Figure 6. Variation of dielectric constant as a function of frequency for Li0.5AlxFe2.5-xO4 (where x=0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8) nano particles.

In order to understand the conduction mechanism and the type of polarons responsible for conduction, the variation of AC conductivity as a function of applied frequency is presented in figure 8. Generally in the disordered solids, AC conductivity is directly proportional to the applied frequency. It is reported that the AC conductivity in large polaron hopping decreases with increase in frequency whereas in the small polaron hopping it increases with increasing frequency [30, 31]. Figure 8: Variation of AC conductivity as a function of frequency for Li0.5AlxFe2.5-xO4 (where x=0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8) nano particles.
Austin and Mott [32] discussed the electrical conduction mechanism in terms of the electron and polaron hopping model. In the present case it is observed that the AC conductivity increases with increase in applied frequency. Hence, conduction is due to small polaron hopping. It is also observed from the figure 8 (inset) that, the AC conductivity increases with the increase of Al content and frequency.

Since each mixture contained a larger and larger dielectric constant it is fair enough to say that the trend fits to the dielectric constant.

2-frequency:- as the frequwncy of the applied voltage increase, the dielectric strength will reduce. 3-the exisistence of humidity lead to decrese dielectric strength. 4-also the presence of surface defect like crack ,pore, decresing the dielectric strength.[53]
The first term that I noted during the movie was Conductive Polymers. Conductive polymers are almost always organic meaning a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon. These polymers have extended delocalized bonds which are bonds found in a molecule that do not belong to a single atom or covalent bond. They are conjugated systems of double bonds and in a aromatic systems. The conjugated systems are atoms covalently bonded with alternating single and double bonds. When the electrons are removed or added into the valence bands the electrical conductivity increases. The conductive polymer has a low conductivity until the electron is removed from the valence band called (p-doping) or (n-doping) until it becomes more conductive. The movement of the charges is what is responsible for electrical conductivity. These polymers are plastic which are organic polymers and with mechanical properties such as flexibility and elasticity.
These reasons are why Lithium-Ion Batteries are some of the most viable options when designing new gadgets. But, the structure of these batteries are why these batteries are being used for new gadgets. A Lithium-Ion Batt...
The higher the energy level in an energy source, the lower the wavelength of the energy produced, and the higher the frequency. Differences in wave energy characteristics are used to classify electromagnetic energy.

Conduction is the process by which heat is transferred from on solid to another. When a solid is heated the molecules inside, which are normally almost static, start to vibrate. When another solid is brought into contact with the heated solid the energy from the vibrating molecules at the edge of the heated solid is transferred to the outer molecules of the other solid.

There are formulas to calculate electrical conductivity and resistivity. Conductivity is defined as the inverse of resistivity (a high conductivity means a low resistance), I=V/R or current equals voltage over resistance. This is known as Ohm’s Law. Electrical resistance is calculated by the formula, R=V/I or resistance equals voltage over current. Ohm’s law however does not hold true if temperature changes. Materials that obey Ohm’s law are known as ohmic or linear because the potential difference across it varies linearly with the current. In addition, whether or not a material obeys Ohm’s law its resistance can be described in bulk resistivity. Furthermore, over sizable ranges of temperature, this temperature depe...
